Memento Mori, Flyleaf's second album, came out on A&M/Octone on November 10, 2009, and it takes its name from the old Latin warning to remember that you will die. That's a heavy title for a band out of Belton, Texas, and they carry it like one. Howard Benson produced, giving the record a thick, punishing alternative-rock sheen, with Sameer Bhattacharya and Jared Hartmann's guitars stacked like cinder blocks over Pat Seals's bass and James Culpepper's drums.
Out front, Lacey Sturm carries the drama, and "Again" and "Chasm" show how hard this band could hit after the platinum success of its debut. The album entered the Billboard 200 at number eight and made history along the way, becoming the first album by a female-fronted act to top Billboard's Hard Rock Albums chart.
